I agree. This seems a decent venue for such discussion.
Moving the discussion to some other list will just result in the discussion's
death unless there is already the proper community in that list to receive
it. If it requires everyone on this list to subscribe to the other list
to participate in the discussion, what have we gained? Besides being subscribed
to yet another mail list. :-(--
